Default XjR Belt Replacement SC 4.2

My 04 xjr is at 105,000 miles and its time to change the belts. Peeking down in through all the hoses at tubes it appears there are 2 separate belts, is that correct? If so does anyone have the part numbers?
My local dealership are a bunch of Comedians and told me it would cost $1,100 USD to perform this replacement.
Does anyone have experience swapping these out?

Ive read some other threads about there being a quick way to do it but inbeleive they were talking about the earlier bodystyle xjr (non aluminum body)
Thanks

That's because the dealer will need to install new pulleys. Have a look here for better options, https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...n-help-151144/.

I used Goodyear 4060910 & Goodyear 4080521 on my XKR and they have been fine.

I replaced both of mine when I replaced the coolant so was able to move hoses out of the way as well as the coolant reservoir which made it so much easier.

Did not need to touch the fan assembly.
